This is Paris!
Under the eyes of Jürgen Klopp, present at Charléty as boss of the Red Bull project of which Paris FC is now part, the Ile-de-France club put forward gear again with Amiens on the smallest of margins (1-0). Faced with the sharp offensives of the Picards, who notably found the crossbar in the first period, the Ile-de-France residents showed their mastery and efficiency. A very good ball into the area from Timothée Kolodziejczak and the finish from Pierre-Yves Hamel were enough for the PFC to temporarily regain the leadership position.
Ajaccio and Caen in big trouble
In a Corsican derby postponed – due to too strong winds – Friday evening, AC Ajaccio sank in one half to the hated rival Bastia (4-0). A penalty from Tom Ducroq, quickly followed by a top corner from Félix Tomi, quickly buried the visitors’ hopes before a catastrophic end to the first act, between the third pawn signed Lamine Cissé and the collapse of Everson Pereira da Silva, sent off even before the halfway mark. For fun, Lisandru Tramoni will add a fourth at the heart of the second act.
Bad afternoon also for the 16theCaenwho is not doing well despite his change of coach, with a home defeat against Grenoble (0-1). Surprised by a feat from Matthéo Xantippe, whose cross crossed the entire surface to benefit Théo Valls, the Malherbistes returned to the locker room under the whistles. The second period will only be animated by three red cards, including two on the Norman side.
The competition is tough for the title of most street-wise team in the championship.
The afternoon results:
But : Hamel (50e)
But : T. Valls (45e+1) for the GF38
Expulsions : V. Henry (60e) and K. Coulibaly (90e+11) for Malherbe // Ar. Mendy (89e) for the GF38
Goals: Ducrocq (19e SP), Tomi (23e), L. Cissé (40e) and Tramoni (68e) for Sporting
Expulsion: Pereira da Silva (42e) for the ACA
The Cardinal: “Maybe people didn’t like my face”
